images. To start and stop scanning, refer to the documentation
provided with your application software.

Document
preparation

• A batch of documents to be fed into the scanner must be arranged so
the leading edges of all documents are aligned and centered in the
input tray; this allows the feeder to introduce documents into the
scanner one at a time.
• Remove all staples and paper clips before scanning. Staples and
paper clips on documents may damage the scanner and documents.
• Documents should be in good condition.
• Torn, damaged or crushed pages can be transported successfully
through the scanner. However, no scanner can transport every
possible type of damaged paper. If in doubt about whether a specific
damaged document can be transported through the scanner, place
the document in a clear protective sleeve. Sleeves should be
manually fed, one at a time, folded edge first, while lifting the gap
release lever.

4 Image Processing
Overview

This chapter introduces concepts that may be new to some users. The
Kodak i1400 Series Scanners provide the ability to process scanned
images to improve their quality. Using these features the scanner can
sometimes make the scanned image look better than the original
document. Basic image processing concepts are reviewed in this
chapter to help you take advantage of these features.
Image processing refers to several separate features of the scanner
that allow you to automatically adjust each image in a certain way that
may improve the resulting images. Common examples of image
processing features are correcting any skew in the fed document,
cutting the edges of the image off to remove any unneeded border or
cleaning up extraneous “noise” on the image. This can be done
automatically so you can get better images with minor rework.
The information that follows describes the image processing features.
The same options should be available on the user interface of the
scanning application you are using (i.e., Kodak Capture Software).

Terminology and
features

If you have used previous scanners from Kodak, you may be familiar
with the image processing features already. With the new graphical
user interface in the TWAIN datasource, some of the names of those
features have changed. Refer to Appendix B, TWAIN Image
Processing Terminology for a cross reference of previous names with
new names.

Using the TWAIN
datasource

The Kodak i1400 Series Scanners can provide a wide variety of
electronic images. This can be done by using the TWAIN datasource
Kodak provides in concert with your scanning application. The TWAIN
datasource is the part of the capture system which links the scanner to
your scanning application.
When using the TWAIN datasource, the main Kodak Scanner window
will display a list of Setting Shortcuts. Each Setting Shortcut is a group
of specific image and device settings. The supplied Setting Shortcuts
represent some common electronic image outputs used for a wide
variety of input documents. If none of the Setting Shortcuts meet your
scanning needs, you can create a customized Setting Shortcut. For
example, you could create a Setting Shortcut called “Invoices” and
whenever you want to scan invoices, you simply select that Setting
Shortcut. For more information, refer to the sections entitled, “Creating
a new Setting Shortcut” and “Changing image settings” later in this
chapter.
For the purpose of this manual, all displayed dialog boxes assume the
features available on the Kodak i1420 and i1440 Scanners (duplex
scanner). If you have a Kodak i1410 Scanner (simplex scanner) all
options are limited to one-sided scanning only.

How do I begin?

The goal is to make scanning as simple as possible. This is
accomplished by selecting a Setting Shortcut from the main Kodak
Scanner window and then selecting OK/Scan.
The scanner comes with some Setting Shortcuts already defined. In
most cases, you will find that these shortcuts are all you will need. If you
find that you need different settings, then you should create your own
Setting Shortcut. Your shortcut will be added to the list of Setting
Shortcuts and available for all future scanning.
Most of the options you will want to set are available on these two
windows:
• Image Settings: clicking the Settings button on the main Kodak
Scanner window, displays the Image Settings window. From this
window you can set your image processing parameters by using the
General, Size, Adjustments and Enhancements tab. You can also
access the Device settings, by clicking the Device button or the
Advanced settings by clicking the Advanced Image Setup icon.
• Device Settings: the Device button is located on the Image Settings
window. When you select Device, you will have access to the
General and Multifeed tabs (and Printer tab if you have the document
printer installed). From the Device Settings window, you can also
access Diagnostics.

A-61550 May 2007

The procedures that follow describe how to configure a customized
Setting Shortcut. Complete descriptions of the features and options on
the Kodak Scanner window and tabs are found in the section entitled,
“The main Kodak Scanner window”.
NOTE: Setting Shortcuts can sometimes be overridden by your
scanning application. If this happens, the shortcut you call will
appear in the main Kodak Scanner window in italics with the
word next to it. This is normal behavior for an
application that does not use Setting Shortcuts and downloads
its preferred individual settings to the scanner first and then
provides access to the TWAIN datasource.
When you click OK to begin scanning, you will be asked if you
want to save the changed settings. When using an application
that does not use Setting Shortcuts, select No to this prompt
and continue scanning.

Selecting Image
settings

From the main Kodak Scanner window:

1. Select a predefined Setting Shortcut from the Setting Shortcuts list.
Choose a Setting Shortcut that describes as closely as possible the
image output you desire.
2. Determine if you want to capture an electronic image of the front of
your document, back of your document or both sides of your
document and make the selection from the Input document is dropdown list. Options are:
• Two Sided — captures both sides of the document
• One Sided-Front — captures the front side only
• One Sided-Back — captures the back side only

A-61550 May 2007

3. Place one or two representative documents in the input tray of the
scanner.
NOTE: When scanning one side of a document or if you are using
an i1410 Scanner, be sure to place the side of the
document to be scanned facing the input tray.
4. If you want to see what your selected image processing options will
look like and make on-screen changes, click Preview to review and
adjust the image.
NOTE: This only needs to be done if you want to make interactive
adjustments to your selected image processing options.
5. If you are satisfied with your selected image processing options,
reload your document if necessary and click OK/Scan.
• If the images are acceptable, the image processing settings are
fine and you do not need to click the Settings button to alter any
values in the General, Size, Adjustments or Enhancements tabs.
• If the images are not acceptable, you can either select a different
predefined Setting Shortcut that more closely describes your
desired output or you can continue to work with the Setting
Shortcut you have selected by reviewing each setting on the
General, Size, Adjustments and Enhancements tabs and make
the appropriate changes. When you make any changes, repeat
Steps 3 - 5 to until you get the desired results.
6. If you made any changes to a predefined default Setting Shortcut,
click Save As on the main Kodak Scanner window. The Save As
dialog box will be displayed.

7. Enter a new Setting Shortcut name that is meaningful to you and
click Save. You have now created and saved a custom Setting
Shortcut which can be used for your scanning operations.

Adjustments tab: black
and white

The options available on the Adjustments tab depend on the Scan as
selection on the General tab. The following options are based on a
Scan as selection of Black and White.

Conversion quality — these settings effect how the scanner analyzes
a grayscale version of the document which is used to produce the black
and white electronic image.
• Best (iThresholding): the scanner analyzes each document to
produce the highest quality image. This option allows scanning of
mixed documents with varying quality (i.e., faint text, shaded
backgrounds, color backgrounds) and when scanning with consistent
document sets.
• Normal (ATP): allows you to determine the optimal settings to
produce the desired image quality. This option works best when
scanning with consistent document sets. You may also want to use
this option if you have difficult documents such that you cannot find a
Contrast setting for Best that produces the desired quality.
• Draft (Fixed): allows you to select the grayscale threshold used to
determine if a pixel is black or white. This option works best for high
contrast documents.
Contrast — allows you to make an image sharper or softer. Decreasing
this setting will make the image softer and reduce noise in the image.
Increasing this setting will make the image clearer and make light
information more visible. The options range from -50 to 50. The default
is 0.
NOTE: This is not available for Conversion quality: Draft.

A-61550 May 2007

Threshold — aids in controlling the level at which a pixel is considered
black or white. Decreasing this setting will make the image appear
lighter, and can be used to subdue background noise. Increasing this
setting will make the image appear darker, and can be used to help pick
up light information. This options range from 0 to 255. The default is 90.
NOTE: This is not available for Conversion quality: Best.
Filters
• Noise
- (none)
- Lone Pixel: reduces random noise by converting a single black
pixel to white when it is completely surrounded by white pixels or
by converting a single white pixel to black when it is completely
surrounded by black pixels.
- Majority Rule: sets each pixel based on its surrounding pixels.
The pixel will become white if the majority of the surrounding
pixels are white and visa versa.
• Image
- (none)
- Halftone Removal: enhances dot matrix text and images with
halftone screens (e.g., newspaper photographs).
Invert Colors — allows you to select how the black pixels will be stored
in the image. By default the black pixels are stored as black and the
white pixels are stored as white. Turn this option on if you want the
black pixels stored as white and the white pixels stored as black.
NOTE: You may want to change this option if your application
misinterprets the image data and stores your image in reverse
of what you expect.

A-61550 May 2007

Adjustments tab: color
or grayscale

The options available on the Adjustments tab depend on the Scan as
selection on the General tab. The following options are based on a
Scan as selection of Color or Grayscale.

Brightness — changes the amount of white in the color or grayscale
image. The values range from -50 to 50. The default is 0.
Contrast — makes the image sharper or softer. The values range from
-50 to 50. The default is 0.
Red — changes the amount of red in the color image.The values range
from -50 to 50. The default is 0. Does not apply to grayscale images.
Green — changes the amount of green in the color image. The values
range from -50 to 50. The default is 0. Does not apply to grayscale
images.
Blue — changes the amount of blue in the color image. The values
range from -50 to 50. The default is 0. Does not apply to grayscale
images.
Background Smoothing — using this option for documents or forms
with a background color will help produce images with a more uniform
background color. This option improves image quality and may reduce
file size.
• Method:
- (none) - no background smoothing will be performed.
- Automatic - smooths up to three background colors.
- Change to White - identifies up to three background colors and
substitutes each color with white.

A-61550 May 2007

- (none)
- White
- Black
• All sides match: when turned on, an equal amount will be filled in on
all sides.
• Top: determines how much of the top edge will be filled in.
NOTE: This option is applied to all edges when All sides match is
turned on.
• Left/Right: the option on the left will determine how much of the left
edge will be filled in and the option on the right will determine how
much of the right edge will be filled in.
• Bottom: determines how much of the bottom edge will be filled in.
NOTE: When using Image Edge Fill, be careful not to enter a value
too large as it could fill in image data that you want to keep.

A-61550 May 2007

Blank Image Detection — allows you to configure the scanner to not
include blank images.
• On: turns Blank Image Detection on and makes the rest of the Blank
Image Detection options available.
• Delete if file size is less than: allows you to select the minimum
image size that the scanner will consider to be non-blank. Any image
that is less than this value will be considered blank and will not be
given to the scanning application. The values range from 1 to 1000
KB (1 KB equals 1024 bytes).
Color Dropout — used to eliminate a form's background so that only
the entered data is included in the electronic image (i.e., remove the
form’s lines and boxes). For black and white images, these settings
effect the grayscale version of the document which the scanner
analyzes to produce that electronic image.
• Color: select the desired dropout color.
- (none)
- Red
- Green
- Blue
NOTE: For i1440 Scanners only: If you created custom dropout
colors, these colors will also be available in the Color dropdown list.

Sensitivity
• Low: documents requiring only a small amount of color to be saved
as color/grayscale images. Used for capturing documents that are
primarily black text with small logos, or contain small amounts of
highlighted text or small colorful photos.
• Medium: documents requiring more color, as compared with the Low
option, before they are saved as color/grayscale images.
• High: documents requiring more color, as compared with the Medium
option, before they will be saved as color/grayscale images. Used for
distinguishing documents containing medium- to large-size colorful
photos from plain black text. Photos with neutral colors may require
adjustments to the Color Threshold or Color Amount values in order
to be captured correctly.

A-61550 May 2007

• Custom: allows you to manually adjust the Color amount and/or
Color threshold.
NOTE: When setting Sensitivity values, it is suggested that you start
with the Medium option and scan a typical job set. If too
many documents were returned as color/grayscale vs. black
and white, then change to the High option and re-run the job.
If too few documents were returned as color/grayscale vs.
black and white, then change to the Low option and re-run
the job. If none of these options provide the desired result,
select Custom to manually adjust Color Amount and/or Color
Threshold. Custom also allows access to the Learn mode
which provides a method for the scanner to analyze
documents and recommend settings.
Color amount — the amount of color that needs to be present in a
document before it will be saved as either color/grayscale. As the value
of Color Amount increases, more color pixels are required. Valid values
are 1 to 200.
Color threshold — the color threshold or saturation (i.e., pale blue vs.
dark blue) at which a given color will be included in the color amount
calculation. A higher value indicates that a more intense color is
required. Valid values are 0 to 100.
Learn — allows you to calculate your settings based on representative
color documents scanned. Before selecting Learn, place at least 5
representative color documents in the input tray. The documents will be
scanned and analyzed to determine the recommended Color amount.
NOTE: These Color amount and Color threshold sliders will be updated
automatically. If these values do not provide the desired results
with your job set, you may need to manually adjust the Color
Threshold.

Device - Multifeed tab

Multifeed detection aids in document processing by detecting
documents that may go through the feeder overlapped. Multifeeds can
happen due to stapled documents, adhesives on documents, or
electrostatically charged documents.

Ultrasonic Detection
Sensitivity — controls how aggressively the scanner will work to
determine if more than one document is fed into the scanner. Multifeeds are triggered by detecting air gaps between documents. This
allows multifeed detection to be used with job sets containing
documents with mixed thicknesses.
• (none)
• Low: least aggressive setting and is less likely to detect labels, poor
quality, thick or wrinkled documents as multi-fed documents.
• Medium: use if your job set has varying document thicknesses or
labels attached to the document. Depending on the label material,
most documents with labels should not be detected as a multi-fed
document.
• High: the most aggressive setting. This is a good setting to use if all
documents are similar in thickness no greater than 20-lb. bond paper.
NOTE: Regardless of the setting, “sticky” notes may still be detected
as multi-fed documents.
Length Detection — allows you to select the maximum length of the
documents in your job set. If the scanner detects a document of that
length or longer, it will determine that a multifeed has occurred. You can
turn this option off or set a length up to 34.5 inches.

A-61550 May 2007

Action When Detected — select what action you want the scanner to
take when a multifeed is detected. With all options, the condition will be
logged in the scanner.
• Stop Scanning: scanning will stop and control will return to the
scanning application (i.e., ends the job). Verify that the paper path
has been cleared and restart the scan session from the scanning
application.
• Stop Scanning - leave paper in path: scanning will stop
immediately (i.e., making no attempt to clear the paper path) and
control will return to the scanning application (i.e., ends the job).
Clear any documents from the paper path prior to restarting the scan
session from the scanning application.
• Continue Scanning: the scanner will continue to scan.
Play sound on PC — turn this option on if you want the PC to make a
sound when a multifeed is detected. You can click the Browse button to
select the desired .wav file.
NOTE: The sound on the PC may not occur at the exact time the
multifeed is detected by the scanner.

Using the ISIS Driver

The ISIS Driver is software that communicates with the scanner. This
driver is created and maintained by EMC Captiva and is provided with
the scanner by Kodak. Many scanning applications support ISIS drivers
and this driver can be used to interface with them.
This section provides descriptions of the options on the tabs of the main
ISIS Driver window and how to set these options.
For the purpose of this manual, all displayed windows assume the
features available on the Kodak i1420/i1440 Scanners. If you have a
Kodak i1410 Scanner, all options are limited to one-sided scanning
only.
See the section entitled, “Starting the Scan Validation Tool” earlier in
this chapter to access the main ISIS Driver window.

The main ISIS Driver
window

The main ISIS Driver window provides a set of 9 tabs. You can select
each of these tabs and make any choices necessary to meet your
scanning needs. The buttons on the bottom of the window apply to all
the tabs.

Default  when you select Default, the values will be reset to the
factory defaults.
Copy  this function is only available when scanning two-sided
documents. The Copy button provides a convenient way to set up the
color, grayscale or black and white image settings on one side and
transfer them to the other. For example, if you highlight and set up
Front Image #1, you can use the Copy button to duplicate those
settings for Back Image #2.
OK  saves the values set on all tabs.
Cancel  closes the window without saving any changes.

A-61550 May 2007

Main tab

The Main tab provides the following options:

Image Mode
Camera — the selections in the Camera box list the available sides
(front and back) of an image where you can define individual image
processing values. Options include: Front Image #1, Front Image #2,
Back Image #1 and Back Image #2.
The Kodak Scanner drivers allow you to control the camera settings
independently. Some settings apply only to black and white images,
others apply to color/grayscale images. By selecting the appropriate
camera and image mode, you can control the scanner’s output.
Mode
• Black and white: if you want your electronic image to represent all
elements of your document in black and white.
• Grayscale: if you want your electronic image to have a range of
varying shades of gray from black to white.
• Color: if you want your electronic image to be in color.
• Auto Detect Grayscale: sets auto color detect for grayscale. See
the section entitled, “Auto Color Detect tab” for more information.
• Auto Detect Color: sets auto color detect for color. See the section
entitled, “Auto Color Detect tab” for more information.
Dots per inch (dpi) or resolution  indicates the scanning resolution,
which largely determines the quality of the scanned image. The greater
the resolution, the better the reproduction. However, scanning at a
higher resolution also increases scanning time and file size.
Choose a resolution value from the drop-down list. The default is 200
dpi. Available resolutions are: 75, 100, 150, 200, 240, 300, 400, 600
and 1200 dpi.

A-61550 May 2007

Cropping  allows you to capture a portion of the document being
scanned. All cropping options can be used with color/grayscale and
black and white images. Front and Back cropping are independent,
however, for dual stream scanning, color/grayscale and black and white
cropping must be the same per side. Only one cropping option can be
assigned per image.
• Automatic: dynamically adjusts the cropping window for different
document sizes based on the edges of the image.
• Aggressive: eliminates any residual black border on any image
edges. In order to achieve this, there is a possibility that a small
amount of image data from the edge of the document may be lost.
• Fixed to Transport: (used for batches of same-sized documents)
allows you to define the area to be imaged. Fixed to Transport
cropping is used in conjunction with paper size and page layout and
assumes you are center-feeding your documents. If you are not using
center feeding, you must select the Layout tab to define your scan
area. See the section entitled “Layout tab” later in this chapter.
• Relative to Document: (zone processing): (used for batches of
same-sized documents) — zone processing is a floating fixed crop
window (the zone) located relative to the upper left corner of a
document. It allows you to select an area on the document to be
delivered in either color/grayscale or black and white format (a
separate window for both black and white and color/grayscale may
be defined). Different parameters may be selected for both the front
and back of the image.
This option may be used in conjunction with Automatic cropping
where a separate color/grayscale or black and white area to be
saved is desired. It is useful in applications where a photograph,
signature, embossment or seal appears in a consistent area for an
application (you may want that small area in color/grayscale and the
rest in black and white). To define a zone, select the Layout tab.
Binarization — these options work on grayscale images and outputs a
black and white electronic image. Their strength lies in the ability to
separate the foreground information from the background information
even when the background color or shading varies, and the foreground
information varies in color quality and darkness. Different types of
documents may be scanned using the same image processing
parameters and results in excellent scanned images.
• iThresholding: allows the scanner to dynamically evaluate each
document to determine the optimal threshold value to produce the
highest quality image. This allows scanning of mixed document sets
with varying quality (i.e., faint text, shaded backgrounds, color
backgrounds) to be scanned using a single setting thus reducing the
need for document sorting. When using iThresholding, only Contrast
can be adjusted.
• Fixed Processing (FP): used for black and white and other high
contrast documents. If Fixed Processing is selected, only Brightness
can be adjusted.

100

A-61550 May 2007

• Adaptive Thresholding (ATP): separates the foreground
information in an image (i.e., text, graphics, lines, etc.) from the
background information (i.e., white or non-white paper background).
When using Adaptive Thresholding, Brightness and Contrast can be
adjusted.
Brightness — changes the amount of white in the color and grayscale
image. Use the slider to select a value from 0 to 255. The default is 90.

Brightness: 50

Brightness: 127

Contrast  adjusts the difference between black and white, thereby
making an image sharper or softer.
The difference between black and white is small with a low contrast
setting, so the image is softer. With a high contrast setting, the
difference between black and white is large, so the image is clearer.
Select a contrast value from 1 to 100. The default is 50.

A-61550 May 2007

101

Layout tab

The Layout tab provides the following options:

Page Orientation — allows you to select the way you place your
documents in the scanner, Top first, Bottom first, Left first or Right
first. When using the Kodak i1400 Series Scanners, select Top first.
Image Orientation
• Automatic: if you select Automatic, the Page Orientation options
are not available.
• Portrait: displays the image orientation in the shape of a
conventional portrait, where height is greater than width.
• Landscape: displays the image orientation in the shape of a
conventional landscape painting, where width is greater than height.
Page Size  the default page size is set when a scanner is first
selected. You can choose a different page size using the drop-down list.
Scan Area — displays the Scan Area dialog box. The Scan Area
options are only available for images when the cropping option is Fixed
to Transport or Relative to Document. See the section entitled “The
Scan Area dialog box” later in the chapter for more information.

102

A-61550 May 2007

Image Processing tab

The Image Processing tab displays the Image Mode and Mode
information that was previously described. Refer to the section entitled,
“The main ISIS Driver tab” earlier in this chapter for descriptions.

Document Type
• Text: when the documents you want to scan contain mostly text.
• Text with Graphics: when the documents you want to scan contain a
mix of text, business graphics (bar graphs, pie charts, etc.) and line
art.
• Photographs: when the documents you want to scan are comprised
mainly of photos.
• Text with Photographs: when the documents you want to scan
contain a mix of text and photos.
Media type — select one of the following options based upon the
texture/weight of the paper you are scanning. Available options are:
Plain Paper, Thin Paper, Glossy Paper, Card Stock, Magazine.
Options
• Deskew  automatically straightens a document within ±0.3
degrees of the leading edge of the document. Deskew can detect up
to a 45-degree skew and correct up to a 24-degree angle at 200 dpi
or a 10-degree skew angle at 300 dpi. This option is not available
when Fixed to Transport or Relative to Document is selected.
NOTE: To prevent data loss, the document must have all four
corners within the image path.
• Halftone Removal  enhances images containing dot matrix text
and/or images with shaded or colored backgrounds using halftone
screens and effectively eliminates noise caused by the halftone
screen.

A-61550 May 2007

103

• Invert Image  allows you to select how the black pixels will be
stored in the image. By default the black pixels are stored as black
and the white pixels are stored as white. Turn this option on if you
want the black pixels stored as white and the white pixels stored as
black.
NOTE: You may want to change this option if your application
misinterprets the image data and stores your image in
reverse of what you expect.
• Add Border — allows you to add a fixed amount of border to the left,
right, top and bottom edge of the image.
Noise Filter
• (none)
• Lone Pixel: reduces random noise by converting a single black pixel
to white when it is completely surrounded by white pixels or by
converting a single white pixel to black when it is completely
surrounded by black pixels.
• Majority Rule: sets each pixel based on its surrounding pixels. The
pixel will become white if the majority of the surrounding pixels are
white and visa versa.
JPEG (Joint Photographic Editor Group) Quality — if you choose
JPEG compression, select one of the quality options:
• Draft: maximum compression which produces the smallest image
size.
• Good: a fair amount of compression but still produces acceptable
image quality.
• Better: some compression which produces decent image quality.
• Best: minimal compression which produces very good image quality.
• Superior: the least amount of compression which produces the
largest image size.

104

A-61550 May 2007

Scanner tab

The Scanner tab provides the following options.

Paper Source
NOTE: Flatbed options are only available if your scanner is equipped
with the Kodak i1400 Series A3 Flatbed Accessory.
• ADF: if you are scanning documents from the input tray.
• Flatbed: if you are scanning documents using the flatbed.
Transport timeout — allows you to set the amount of time the scanner
will wait after the last document enters the transport before the
transport timeout action is taken. You can specify a time delay setting
from 1 to 300 seconds.
Energy Star — allows you to set the amount of time the scanner will
remain inactive before the scanner goes into an idle state. Choices are:
0 to 60 minutes.
Blank image detection — select the image size (KB), below which an
image is determined to be blank. Images with sizes less than the
number you select will not be created. If you use this option, you must
specify a blank image size for each image type (Binary, Gray and
Color) you want to delete. If you do not make an entry in these fields,
all images are kept.

A-61550 May 2007

105

Multi-feed Detection options
• Length Detection  enable or disable (the default) this option. If
enabled, select the maximum length of the document that can be
scanned without a multi-feed being detected. Length detection is
used when scanning same-sized documents to check for overlap. For
example, if you are scanning 8.5 x 11-inch (A4) documents in portrait
mode, enter a value of 11.25 inches (28.57 cm) in the Maximum
Length field. The maximum value is 13.99 inches (35.56 cm).
• Auto Set: automatically sets the maximum length value to .50-inch
(1.27 cm) greater than the length of the currently selected page size.
Ultrasonic Detection — check this option to set multi-feed detection.
• Sensitivity — controls how aggressively the scanner will work to
determine if more than one document is fed into the transport. Multifeeds are triggered by detecting air gaps between documents. This
allows multi-feed detection to be used with job sets containing
documents with mixed thicknesses.
- Low: the least aggressive setting and is less likely to detect
labels, poor quality, thick or wrinkled documents as multi-fed
documents.
- Medium: use Medium sensitivity if your application has varying
document thickness or labels attached to the document.
Depending on the label material, most documents with labels
should not be detected as a multi-fed document.
- High: the most aggressive setting. This is a good setting to use if
all documents are similar in thickness to 20-lb. Bond paper.
• Action — select an option of how you want to the scanner to perform
if it detects a multi-fed document.
- Beep and continue: if selected, the scanner will beep, display
and log the condition but continue to operate.
- End of Job: if selected, the scanner log the condition and stop
the feeder and transport (the scanner will be disabled).
• Alarm — select this option if you want the scanner to make a sound
when a multi-feed is detected. You can click the Speaker icon to
display the Open dialog box. From the Open dialog box, select the
desired .wav file and click OK.

106

A-61550 May 2007

Auto Color Detect tab

The Auto Color Detect tab provides the following options.

Color Content
• None
• Low: documents require only a small amount of color to be saved as
color or grayscale images. Used for capturing documents that are
primarily black text with small logos, or contain small amounts of
highlighted text or small colorful photos.
• Medium: documents require more color, as compared with the Low
option, before they are saved as color or grayscale images.
• High: documents require more color, as compared with the Medium
option, before they will be saved as color or grayscale images. Used
for distinguishing documents containing medium- to large-size
colorful photos from plain black text. Photos with neutral colors may
require adjustments to the Color Threshold or Color Amount values in
order to be captured correctly.

A-61550 May 2007

107

• Custom: makes the Color Amount and/or Color Threshold options
available.
NOTE: When setting Auto Color Detect values, it is suggested that
you start with the Medium option and scan a typical job set. If
too many documents were returned as color/grayscale vs.
black and white, then change to the High option and re-run
the job. If too few documents were returned as color/
grayscale vs. black and white, then change to the Low option
and re-run the job. If none of these options provide the
desired result, select Custom option to manually adjust Color
Amount and/or Color Threshold.
Color Amount: the amount of color that needs to be present in a
document before it will be saved as either color or grayscale. As the
value of Color Amount increases, more color pixels are required. Valid
values are 1 to 200.
Color Threshold: the color threshold or intensity (i.e., pale blue vs.
dark blue) at which a given color will be included in the color amount
calculation. A higher value indicates that a more intense color is
required. Valid values are 0 to 100.
Learn — if Low, Medium and High options do not give you the desired
results, use the Learn option.
1. Click Learn and follow the prompts.
2. Place at least 5 representative color documents in the input tray and
click OK. These documents will be analyzed and the recommended
color amount will be calculated for you.
3. Write down the Color Amount and Color Threshold values that
are displayed in the dialog box as these are the settings you will be
required to use in your application.
NOTE: These settings were calculated based on the representative
color documents scanned. If these values do not provide the
desired results with your production job set, you may need to
manually adjust the Color Threshold.

108

A-61550 May 2007

Adjustments tab

The Adjustments tab provides the following options.

Color Adjustment
Red — changes the amount of red in the color image.
Green — changes the amount of green in the color image.
Blue — changes the amount of blue in the color image.
• Adjust these settings by dragging the slider bar to the left or right,
entering a value in the text box or using the up/down arrows.
Background Smoothing — using this option for documents or forms w
with a background color will help produce images with a more uniform
background color.
• Background: select one of the following:
- None - no background smoothing will be performed.
- Automatic - smooths up to three background colors.
- Change to White - identifies up to three background colors and
substitutes each color with white.

A-61550 May 2007

109

• Apply to:
- Predominant - smooths the predominant background color to
white.
- Neutral - smooths only the neutral color to white, and also smooths
up to two additional background colors.
- All - smooths the neutral color and up to two additional background
colors to white.
NOTE: The Apply to options are only available for Method: Change
to White.
• Aggressiveness: allows you to adjust the extent at which the
background(s) are determined. The values range from -10 to 10. The
default is 0.
Image Edge Fill — fills the edges of the final electronic image by
covering the area with the specified color. Image Edge Fill is performed
after all other image processing options have been applied.
Frame Mode — fills in an equal amount of the selected color from the
Image Edge Fill drop-down list on all sides of the image, or you can
select a value in the Top, Left, Right and/or Bottom area(s) from each
side of the scanned image to be filled.
When using this option, be careful not to enter a value too large as it
could fill in image data that you want to keep.

A-61550 May 2007

Dropout tab

The Dropout tab displays the Image Mode and Mode information that
was previously described. Refer to the section entitled, “The main ISIS
Driver tab” earlier in this chapter for descriptions.

The Dropout tab is used to eliminate a form's background so that only
the entered data is included in the electronic image (i.e., remove the
form’s lines and boxes). For black and white images, these settings
effect the grayscale version of the document which the scanner
analyzes to produce that electronic image.

5 Document Printing

This chapter provides instructions for using the Document Printer and
the Enhanced Printer. The following information and procedures can be
found in this guide:
• Printer specifications.
• Changing print positions.
• Replacing the ink cartridge and ink blotter strips.
NOTE: Information about enabling printing and setting up print strings
can be found in Chapter 4, Image Processing.
The Document Printer/Enhanced Printer operates at full scanner
speed. The printer can add a date, time, document sequential counter,
and custom messages.
The print string can be configured to include both literal (static)
information (i.e., information that stays the same for each document,
such as batch name or operator) and dynamic information (i.e.,
information that may change for each page scanned, such as the
document sequential counter). The capture software application
controls static fields; any information that the software allows you to
enter can be sent to the printer.
All printer controls and functions are accessible through the ISIS Driver
or TWAIN Datasource. Printing must be enabled or disabled for each
scan session, which is usually done by using a Setting Shortcut
(TWAIN GUI).
NOTES:
• Clean the scanner’s paper path components daily when using the
printer.
• You cannot print on documents that are smaller than 10 cm (4 in.).
• The ink cartridge must be installed before turning on the scanner, or it
could result in errors when printing is attempted.

6 Maintenance

Cleaning your scanner and preventative maintenance on a regular
basis is required to ensure the best possible image quality.
Some document types generate more paper dust and debris and may
require more frequent cleaning than recommended.
NOTES:
• Some debris from the rubber tires on the feed and separator modules
is normal. Tire debris does not always mean that the tires are worn or
damaged. After cleaning, inspect the tires for wear and replace the
separator module or feed module if necessary.
• When cleaning rollers/tires, allow the rollers/tires to dry completely
before scanning.
• Use only the recommended cleaning supplies.
• Do not use canned/compressed air.
• In addition to the recommended cleaning supplies, you may use a
vacuum cleaner to remove debris from the scanner.
• Using unapproved cleaning fluids or solvents may damage the rubber
tires.

Replacing parts

This section provides procedures for replacing the following parts. Use
the list below as a guideline for frequency or replacement. Usage
figures are not guaranteed. Customer-operating environments,
document type, the condition of documents being scanned, and not
following the recommended cleaning and replacement procedures, can
cause the life of the consumables to vary.
•
•
•
•

Separator Module: 200,000 document pages
Pre-separation Pad: 250,000 document pages
Feed Module: 500,000 document pages
Imaging Guides: replace when guides are scratched or damaged

NOTES:
• Kodak Scanners use replaceable tires than can feed a wide range of
document types, sizes and thicknesses. Tire life and performance will
vary based on the customer’s document set, the frequency of
cleaning the transport and tires, and following the recommended
schedule for changing tires. You should change the tires if you notice
an increase in multiple feeds, stoppages, or a decrease in feeder
performance that is not resolved by following the cleaning
procedures.
• Certain paper types (such as carbonless paper or newsprint), failure
to clean regularly, and/or use of non-recommended cleaning solvents
can shorten roller life.

Problem solving

Use the chart below as a guide to check possible solutions to problems
you may encounter when using the Kodak i1400 Series Scanner.

Problem

Possible Solution

The scanner will not scan/
feed documents

Make sure that:

Documents are jamming

Make sure that:

• the power cord is plugged in and the power is on.
• the scanner cover is completely closed.
• the proper power-up sequence was followed, the scanner’s green light
is on, and the software has enabled scanning.
• documents are making contact with the feed module.
• the height of batched documents is less than 10.2 mm (0.4 in.) or
approximately 150 sheets of 60 g (16 lb.) paper.
• documents meet specifications for size, weight, and type, etc.
• for thicker documents, you lift the gap release lever during feeding.
• you check the feed module and separator module for signs of wear,
and replace these parts if necessary.
You can also power the scanner down and power up again.
• the output tray and guides are adjusted for the length and width of
documents being scanned.
• all jammed documents have been removed from the paper
transport area.
• documents meet specifications for size, weight, and type, etc.
• all staples and paper clips have been removed from the documents.
• the separator module and feed module are clean and properly
installed.
• the drive rollers are clean.
• the imaging guides are clean.

“False” paper jams are occurring

• Make sure that the paper transport area is clean.

35.6 cm (14 in.) or longer documents
are not feeding or are jamming

Make sure that the input and output tray extenders are pulled out to
provide support for long documents.

Image quality is poor or has decreased Make sure that the scanner is clean. Refer to Chapter 5, Maintenance.
The lamps shut off too soon

The lamps in the i1400 Series Scanners will turn off after 15 minutes of
no scanner activity. If the lamps are off, but the scanner has not yet gone
into the Energy Star mode (default 15 minutes), there will be a delay of
about 10 seconds for the lamps to warm up again.
If you set the Energy Star timeout to a new value greater than 15
minutes, you must scan at least one document for that setting to be
enabled. After this setting has been enabled, it will be enforced until a
new setting is selected or the scanner is powered off and back on.

and Disclaimer

KODAK WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL
OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES RESULTING FROM THE SALE,
INSTALLATION, USE, SERVICING OR IMPROPER FUNCTIONING
OF THIS PRODUCT, REGARDLESS OF THE CAUSE. SUCH
DAMAGES FOR WHICH KODAK WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE,
INCLUDE, BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO, LOSS OF REVENUE OR
PROFIT, LOSS OF DATA, DOWNTIME COSTS, LOSS OF USE OF
THE PRODUCT, COST OF ANY SUBSTITUTE PRODUCT,
FACILITIES OR SERVICES OR CLAIMS OF CUSTOMERS FOR

How to obtain
Limited Warranty
service

Kodak Scanners are supplied with information on unpacking, setup,
installation and operation. Careful reading of the User’s Guide will
answer most of the technical questions the end user might have
regarding proper installation, operation and maintenance of the
product. However, should additional technical support be required, you
may visit our website at: www.Kodak.com/go/warranty or contact:
Kodak’s Response Center
(800) 822-1414
The Response Center is available Monday – Friday (excluding Kodak
holidays) 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. EST.
Before placing the call, the eligible purchaser should have the Kodak
Scanner model number, part number, serial number and proof of
purchase available. The eligible purchaser should also be prepared to
provide a description of the problem.
Response Center personnel will assist the end user in resolving the
problem over the phone. The end user may be asked to run some
simple, self-diagnostic tests and report the resulting status and error
code messages. This will assist the Response Center in determining if
the problem is the Kodak Scanner or another component and if the
problem can be resolved over the phone. If the Response Center
determines a hardware problem exists that is covered either under the
Limited Warranty or a purchased Maintenance Agreement, a Return
Material Authorization Number (RMA) will be assigned as needed, a
service request will be initiated and repair or replacement procedures
will follow.

Packaging and
shipping guidelines

Purchaser must ship all warranty returns in a method that guarantees
full protection of the product from shipping damage. Failure to do so will
void the Kodak Scanner warranty. Kodak advises the purchaser to keep
the original box and packing materials for storing or shipping. Kodak is
not responsible for issues related to shipping damage. The purchaser
must return only the Kodak Scanner. Prior to shipment, purchaser must
remove and retain all “add-on” items, (i.e. adapters, cables, software,
manuals, etc.). Kodak accepts no responsibility for these items and
they will not be returned with the repaired or replacement Kodak
Scanner. All products should be returned to Kodak in the original
shipping container, or an authorized packaging box for the units being
returned. Purchaser must install the shipping restraint before the Kodak
Scanner is shipped. When the original packaging is not available,
contact Kodak’s Response Center at (800) 822-1414 for part numbers
and replacement packaging ordering information.

Return procedure

Eligible purchasers seeking services for Kodak Scanners covered
under this Limited Warranty must obtain a Return Material Authorization
number (“RMA”) by calling (800) 822-1414 and within ten (10) business
days from the date of issuance of the RMA must return the Kodak
Scanner to the address designated in the RMA at the end user’s own
expense and risk, in compliance with Kodak’s current Packaging and
Shipping Guidelines.
Any defective products or parts replaced by Kodak become the
property of Kodak.

Customer
responsibility

BY REQUESTING SERVICE, THE ELIGIBLE PURCHASER
ACKNOWLEDGES THE TERMS OF THE LIMITED WARRANTY,
INCLUDING THE DISCLAIMER AND LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
PROVISIONS. PRIOR TO SEEKING SERVICE, THE END USER
MUST BACK-UP ANY DATA OR FILES THAT MAY BECOME
DAMAGED OR LOST. KODAK IS, WITHOUT LIMITATION, NOT
RESPONSIBLE FOR LOST OR DAMAGED DATA OR FILES.

Warranty Service
descriptions

Eastman Kodak Company (Kodak) offers a range of service programs
to support its Limited Warranty and to assist with the use and care of
the Kodak Scanner (“Service Methods”). A Kodak Scanner represents
an important investment. Kodak Scanners provide the productivity
needed to stay competitive. The sudden loss of this productivity, even
temporarily, could seriously affect the ability to meet commitments.
Downtime can be very expensive, not just in the cost of the repair but
also in time lost. To help alleviate these problems, Kodak may use one
of the service methods listed below, depending upon product type, in
providing service under its Limited Warranty.

A-61550 May 2007

Registration card and a Limited Warranty Summary card. The Limited
Warranty Summary card is specific by model. The Limited Warranty
Summary card contains important warranty information, including the
model number and the Limited Warranty. Refer to the Limited Warranty
Summary card to determine the available Service Methods applicable
to the particular Kodak Scanner.

card cannot be located, additional information may be obtained about
the product, including updated warranty and service program
information and restrictions, online at www.Kodak.com/go/warranty or
by phone at (800) 822-1414.
To avoid service delays, Kodak urges end users to complete and return
the enclosed Limited Warranty Registration Card at the first opportunity.

performance, reliability and service under the Limited Warranty.

On-site service

For the selected Kodak Scanner, and after the Response Center
verifies a hardware problem, a service call will be opened and logged.
An Kodak Field Engineer will be dispatched to the product location to
perform repair service if the product is located within the contiguous
forty-eight (48) United States, in certain areas of Alaska and Hawaii,
and if there are no security, safety or physical requirements that would
restrict the Field Engineer’s access to the scanner. For additional
